Willow Platters & Bowls

About the Course

Spend a few hours learning new skills with sustainably grown UK willow. This workshop is great for crafty folk. We will start with tension trays or 'platters' used to present bread, cheese or baked goods. You will then create another with added curve to use as a fruit or egg bowl. There will be enough material to make two of each.

No previous skills necessary, although some manual dexterity and patience will be needed. Bring sharp secateurs if you have them and wear old trousers. If you have a recent injury, suffer from RSI, carpal tunnel syndrome or arthritis please check with the tutor first.
